At Ms. Jone's home, she mentions that the guest house was built to house escaped slaves during the Civil War. When the talking tube connecting the house to the guest house is shown close up, the end of the pipe is threaded. Threaded pipes were not in widespread use until long after the Civil War.

When Samuel is out on the reconnaissance (and before his death) a chlorine gas shell bursts behind him. Later, when Tristan is composing his letter home indicating that Alfred will be bringing home Samuel's heart his voice-over narration indicates a date in March 1915. The first German gas attack on the Western Front was in April 1915.
When the 3 brothers are in their first battle with the Canadians, the date referred to is February 1915. The Canadian forces did not participate in their first engagement until March 1915 at the Battle of Neuve Chapelle, 10-13 March 1915.
The language was incorrect for 1914-1920. The "F-word" was not in common use. Nor was the term "screw" as in "getting screwed" part of the vernacular in that period.
In some shots, the log house used in the movie has a shiny modern metal roof, complete with snow-guards to slow the slide-off of snow. In other shots, or from other angles, the roof is comprised of rustic looking wooden boards.
Tristan's bare upper left arm is shown in a scene which displays the distinctive dime sized scar of a smallpox inoculation. This scar is common to those of us (including Brad Pitt) living through the 1960s-'70s, but not for Tristan in the 1910s-20s.
When Tristan is hugging his father as he leaves for war, his coat reveals modern metal snaps that wouldn't have been available in 1914.
During the 1920's Susannah uses a nickel plated Smith & Wesson Model 36 revolver, but the Model 36 wasn't released until 1950.
As Alfred Ludlow rises in the Helena business and political community, he is shown sitting in a boardroom in front of a wall lined with books in a scene that takes place in 1915 or 1916. Directly above his head are a number of volumes that comprise Samuel Eliot Morison's History of United States Naval Operations in World War II, first published in 1947. Their distinctive bright blue spines make them immediately recognizable.
Right after Tristan's wife is killed by the stray bullet, Tristan is screaming on the ground. During this, you can see a lot of dental work (metal crowns) in Brad Pitt's mouth. This type of dental work would not be possible during the early 1900s.

Additionally, the real Tony Spera and Judy Warren make cameo appearances in Ed's birthday party scene. Lili Taylor and Mackenzie Foy reprise their roles as Carolyn Perron and Cindy Perron from the first film, Frances O'Connor and Madison Wolfe reprise their roles as Peggy Hodgson and Janet Hodgson from the second, and Julian Hilliard reprises his role as David Glatzel from the third. James Wan also makes a cameo. They all appear as guests at Judy's wedding, along with Natalia Safran, whose husband, Peter Safran, owns the Safran Company.
In 1964, the Warrens are racing to the hospital for the birth of their child. Their Ford Mustang is a 1967 model as denoted by the front side running lamps, lack of rear side running lamps (fitted to 1968 and later), and the taillights are concave (1964 1/2 to 1966 version is convex).
The film takes place in 1986 but the Smurl family's car is a 1988 Pontiac LeMans which didn't go on sale in the U.S. until 1987.
Two Cadillac hearse cars at the funeral have composite headlamps, denoting 1990-1992 model. The scene takes place in 1986.
The saloon has electric light fixtures on the wall.
When Butch and Sundance are being chased by the posse and ride into the desert, they stop to look back. In the distance are some white buildings; above them and to the right is a modern vehicle, possibly a white box van, that drives along a road from right to left.
Percy Garris uses the phrase "Bingo" to emphasize a point. This expression didn't exist until the 1930s.
After their first Bolivian bank robbery, Butch and Sundance ride out of town at speed and up a slope. To the right of the shot is a very imposing stone building, down in the valley below; looking below it and to the right, a light blue vehicle can be seen to drive along, take a left turn, and reappear among the trees.
The locomotives on the trains are class K-28s, which were not produced until 1923, for exclusive use by the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad on their narrow gauge track in Colorado and New Mexico.
When Butch, Sundance, and Etta arrive in Bolivia, they walk through what looks like to be an abandoned railroad station. When Sundance drops his suitcases and walks through the arch, in the background a vehicle can be seen driving past, from right to left.
When Butch and Sundance are riding down the mountain with Percy to pick up the payroll, power lines and poles can be seen in the background.

Anachronism: Though the movie was released in 1993, Simon Phoenix and John Spartan were supposed to have been imprisoned in the cryo-prison in 1996. When Phoenix releases the other cryo-prisoners, he makes a reference to serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer. Dahmer was killed in prison on November 28,1994, after the film's release but before the cryo-prison would have been built.

This movie's title is somewhat of a pun. Sara's initial transportation is a mule that goes lame, so she trades it for a younger and smaller burro (not exactly a mule). So, the second "mule" of the title may be Hogan, to whom Sara says "You're as stubborn as my mule." She later calls Hogan "Mr. Mule".
Anachronisms:
The Second Franco-Mexican War was 1861-1867. Alfred Nobel patents dynamite in 1867. The story takes place during the French intervention in Mexico from 1861 to 1867. Dynamite was invented in 1867 by Alfred Nobel, yet it was not easily available in the US until at least 1868.
The French did not celebrate Bastille Day until July 14th, 1880.
In the tunnel scenes, Hogan and friends are using hand-held carbide lamps. Carbide was not produced in any quantity until 1892, and carbide lamps were not invented until several years later.
The story takes place during the French intervention in Mexico from 1861 to 1867. Hogan is using a Colt Peacemaker pistol, which did not come into use until 1873. The 1873 Winchester, 1874 Gras and 1907 Berti rifles, as well as the 1917 Colt New Service revolver were not in use at the time either.
The train locomotive has the headlight mounted in the center of the smokebox door, which was not common practice until the early 1900s.
In the scene with Sister Sara up a tree, it is clearly a Eucalypt which wasn't present in Mexico in the 1860s.
In a brief scene when Hogan and the guerrillas enter a church, there is a view of the cloister and altar from above, possibly the choir veranda. The movable altar is seen between the main altar and the benches, but that sort of altar was not in use before 1965, when Christian communities installed that so that the priest could celebrate the Mass looking at the people.
As indicated elsewhere, the story takes place not long after the American Civil War; Hogan describes his participation in this conflict. The song played by the group of Mexicans carrying the exploding piñata, Las Mañanitas (The Birthday Song), was only written after 1894, when its composer Alfonso Esparza Oteo was born.
I recently turned 50 and I am enjoying life with my wife and two daughters in our modest bungalow in the burbs. I work for the federal government as a civil lawyer. My wife and I have recently invested in a rental property that keeps us busy evenings and weekends.
